[g-a-c]

Years Driving: 14
Test Passed: August 2000
Cars Owned: 9 - Fiat Panda 750, Pug 106 1.0, Polo 1.0, (different) Polo 1.0, Golf 90, Leon Cupra TDI, Fabia vRS, Clio 172, Clio 182
Total CC: 13,450cc
Total Miles Driven: 170k-ish since the Golf. Absolutely no idea what I did in the first 5 years/4 cars.
Most Miles in One Car: 75k-ish in the Leon. Bought just as I got involved in a long distance relationship, and promptly did my yearly allowance of 15k in about 9 weeks. Back when diesel was under a quid a litre, thankfully...
Money Spent buying cars: If we're talking purely buying then £41,050 (f**k, that's depressing since I haven't even had cars that were that good!). Pretty much always part-exed too so kind of covered in the purchase prices, but in cash sales I think I've pulled back £7k of that.
Points: 0 (now), got as high as 3 with an SP30 in 2005
Crashes: 2 - one written off Polo, and one rear-ended Golf
Police Stops: 2 - one for forgetting my seatbelt (young and stupid) and one for not checking that a rear passenger hadn't forgotten their seatbelt. 15 year old, so legally my responsibility as driver.
Fastest Speed Driven: 155mph
Fastest Passenger Ride: I've never been a passenger in a racing context, although being a passenger in my own Leon at 70 felt like at least double that due to not being in control myself
Countries Driven In: 1
Best Car Driven: Ariel Atom (experience day)
Worst Car Driven: Ariel Atom, it was pissing it down! Or if I can't name the same car twice, then my Panda. 750cc, 34hp when it was new, and by the time I got it it definitely wasn't new. Had some problem whereby occasionally it would just not rev. It wouldn't stall or run lumpy, it just wouldn't do anything even though the throttle cable and everything seemed fine. Never bothered fixing it as it was only a freebie stopgap, so once I'd driven it for about 6 weeks after passing my test it got scrapped. And for bonus "worst car" points, the back seats.
